Xfce4 shortcuts and focus

https://bbs.archlinux.org –
Hi,I'm using Xfce4 with Compiz.I setup a keyboard shortcut in Xfce to start the terminal easily and it works fine. The only problem is, whenever I start the terminal via shortcut it does not get focused, it's the top window, but the window below still has the focus. The only time the shortcut method works is when the top window is already a terminal or if all windows are minimized.I noticed the same behaviour when calling thunar by shortcut. But if I call for example gcalctool or xfce4-appfinder, it works perfectly If I use the startup menu everything works fine as expected.Any help?

Stories similar to Xfce4 shortcuts and focus

I moved from kde to xfce, and I've found that I cannot use super+space as a keyboard shortcut (applied via the xfce keyboard settings program). My main concern is that I use that shortcut to open up my drop-down terminal (which is currently the xfce4-terminal using the --drop-down option. The catch so far has been that I can use yakuquake with this keyboard shortcut, but not xfce4-terminal.

I recently am unable to open a new tab in xfce4 terminal by using the short cut Ctrl + Shift + t.

It's strange because it used to work and now it only works when I use capital T, that is Ctrl + Shift + T, which in my case, only works when I hit Caps Lock and then Ctrl + Shift + T (and then Caps Lock again because I'm not shouting at the command line...).
